Courtesy of our friend Ray Bernard of RBCS, see a fascinating map of current geo-political and economic risks.  Ray shared this comment with us: “This map was passed along to me by George Campbell, author of Measures and Metrics in Corporate Security and Faculty Emeritus member of the Security Executive Council.  George said, “This one page offers an incredibly powerful overview of one source’s assessment of risk in 2010. It shows how a very complex map can be made to provide a mind boggling level of detail for a huge range of global risks.”

Warning… You may end up spending a few hours testing the various risks interconnections.
